How much have I made in daytrading?
Well, I made $22,976.54 in 2005. And, as of April, I’ve made over $43,000 in 2006, all from an initial starting bankroll of $20,000. How much you make is going to be relative to how much risk you’re willing to accept and how much money you start off with. I know some professional daytraders who fund their account with $100,000 at the start of every year and that’s all that they’ll use for the entire year. I’m sure some daytraders make millions a year, but most of us are just here to make a decent living at something that we love doing.
